5 Year update

Checking in again after many years largely on autopilot, this app and website has been far more successful that I expected, hardly life changing but a solid first effort.

Brief totals of it's performance over the past 5 years:

App Store

• 36.6K Units

• $762 USD Sales

Google AdSense

• $20k+ USD

My SEO efforts started generating some serious traffic that wasn't converting to app installs. I decided to try out adding google ads to the site as an experiment... this proved to be the right strategy as it brings in 20x more revenue that the app.

Interestingly the App is slowly gaining more and more sales and the website is slowly trailing off. Over the past few months with the AI changes to Google search the traffic pattern has changed but is holding steady for now.

It's a low priority project but next step is to replace the WordPress site with a faster Next.js version to resolve some performance issues and give me a platform to freshen up some of the content.
